Back in the day we used to love to chant “Darryl” at Strawberry. Why because he was good and we liked to do it. Why does Sidney Crosby get booed everywhere he goes?

Mon, 15 Jul 2013 18:48:29 +0000http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=484155#comment-531029Terry Collins is the asshole. The booing of Wright had nothing to do with his playing ability, but everything to do with his boneheaded bias of picking his FRIENDS for the derby as opposed to someone who was worthy. Far as I’m concerned, the booing wasn’t nearly enough. “terry”‘s probably an asshole too.

Mon, 15 Jul 2013 18:35:17 +0000http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=484155#comment-531015I was at the game Friday night in Pittsburgh, and yes I was one of the fans booing. Pittsburgh fans are some of the smartest fans in the country in my opinion. We knew why we were booing him. Not because we have disrespect or anything against Wright ( personally one of my favorite players ) but because he didn’t pick our hometown guy for the homerun derby, who many thought was more deserving than others that Wright selected. So with that being said, shut the hell up Collins you cry baby bitch odds are is you will be jobless by the end of the season anyways.

Mon, 15 Jul 2013 13:49:25 +0000http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=484155#comment-530724Collins needs to toughen up a little bit. If I was at the game I would have booed David Wright too – he picked a friend of his rather than someone more deserving to go to the All-Star game. If he had picked Dom Brown over Alvarez and Cuddyer in the first place it probably wouldn’t have been a big deal. Glad Alvarez got the nod but I would have booed all the same to express my displeasure.

With that being said, the reason Collins’ comments bother me is that he’s saying that those boos were stretching farther than just the ire over the HR Derby selection. I have absolutely nothing but respect for David Wright and think he’s a fantastic ball player. I won’t carry a grudge and be booing him the next time he’s in town, but for this three game set I would have.

You should do the same as manager of the lowly Mets. Yep it sure is nice to be able to throw “scoreboard” and “look at our record” in someone’s face for the first time in 20+ years!

When the Mets come to town, I see little kids in Utley jerseys screaming their love for David Wright. Utley was booed in NY at the ASG, now Wright in Pitt. That’s all you need to know about bandwagon fans.

Mon, 15 Jul 2013 02:18:50 +0000http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=484155#comment-530508While I share little respect for Collins as a manager, he is right on here. The Pirates fans had absolutely no business booing Wright JUST BECAUSE he didn’t pick Pedro Alvarez for the HR Derby. That’s like last year when the Royals fans booed Cano JUST BECAUSE he didn’t pick Billy Butler. And don’t give me any crap about “Well it was in his home ballpark last year.” It’s still idiotic. Attitude of a loser.

And Pirates fans should be experts on the subject of losing.

David Wright is one of my favorite baseball players. So don’t assume all fans from every city are the same. He is the definition of a baseball player and brings it every game, even on crappy teams. I loved watching him play for Team USA until he got injured. I get most Philly fans get a bad rep from the idiots, but ever city has idiot fans and the rest of the normal fan base who loves the game and players thru out the league.

This is silly because Wright didn’t promise anything and then did put him on the derby team, different completely

Wright is the Mets best player every best player on each MLB team probably gets booed. Hell even Andrew Mccutchen probably gets booed it’s apart of the game and the fans have a right to boo the others teams best player. It’s actually showing respect.
